British Airways advertising; are they bonkers? - 01/07/2012 11:14
I keep seeing the latest British Airways advert on the telly, which is one of the multitude backing the Olympics.
So far so good, nice to see big companies supporting Team GB *but* the tagline is......
Eh
What next? EDF energy saying "Proud to be the official energy suppliers to the games, now switch off your telly to save power" ?
Surely the whole point of an advert is to get people to use your service, or am I just a bit naive here?
Oh, and I know now why the southerners have an hosepipe ban......all the water is in the new Olympic swimming pools and water sports facilities!
